Understanding the Columns in the Shipping department (Fulfillment Integration View)
The lower portion of the screen will display 4 columns; Queued for Transmission, Pending Immediate Transmission, Unacknowledged Shipments and Recently Acknowledged Shipments.
Column | Description |
---|---|
Held For Review | If you have configured the distribution center to hold orders for review, then the orders will initially go into the far left column "Held for Review". Once there you will select and click the "release button" to move them to the next column, "Queued for Transmission". |
Queued for Transmission / Pickup | Orders will appear in this column when you have configured Transmission Schedules within the distribution center. These orders will not be transmitted to fulfillment until the scheduled time arrives. Once transmitted, the order will move to the 3rd column "Pending Immediate Transmission" |
Manually Unqueued | This are orders that have been manually removed from being sent or picked up by the fulfillment center |
Pending Immediate Transmission | Orders will appear in this column on first arrival into the shipping department only if you do not have Transmission Schedules configured. They typically will reside in this column for only 2 to 5 minutes. |
...
Sent to "Fulfillment" | Orders that appear in this column have already been transmitted to the distribution (fulfillment) center and are awaiting return of confirmation and/or tracking information. If you have a 1-way transmission mechanism then the order will not appear here but goes directly to the Recently Acknowledged Shipments column. |

...
Shipped by "Fulfillment" | Orders that appear in this column have received confirmation and/or tracking information. They are marked as "completed". You will see approximately one weeks orders listed here. |
